Excerpt from A Search for the Masked Tawareks
The name Tawarek is also spelt Touareg, Tuareg Tuarik, and in other ways besides. I have used the form Tawarek, as it is, I think, the one that most nearly represents the correct pronunciation. I am indebted to the writings of the French authors, Général Hanoteau, Commandant Bissuel, and MM. Duveyrier and Mercier, for much of the material relating to the Tawareks, the Sahara, and Twat. My thanks are also due to M. Marius Maure, of Biskra, for permission to reproduce his photograph of the serf who accompanied the Tawarek deputa tion to Algiers. The account of the Senoussia sect is to a great extent taken from M Duveyrier's pamphlet upon the subject. The remainder of the information was gathered from the natives them.
